Need advice for price
I searched the threads and remember seeing some prices, but now that i need them i cant find them. Basically i just need a fair price on a few things. My friend has an EVO with all his stock parts in storage. I am going to buy his intercooler, licp set and the upper intercooler pipe that bends over the rad (i have INJEN uicp), and also the evo x BOV. So whats a fair price to pay for these parts.

I don't know if these are fair prices, but this is what I paid.
Evo X FMIC - $65 shipped
Evo X LICP - $70 shipped
The front X UICP elbow I was quoted $50 shipped. I bought a new TurboXS complete UICP for $130 shipped instead. The X BPV I've seen for around $75, but I'm already using my old Synapse DV.
All prices from EvoM classifieds. Good deals to be had there if you're persistent. I imagine your friend should give you better prices since you actually know each other.

the LICP needs an extension pipe to be able to reach the position of the RA bpv (since the evo one sits near the firewall) i cant remember where i read it but maybe someone else here can confirm

Thank You all. This may seem a little stupid, but with the ext. hose for the BOV, i dont understand why the stock hose wouldnt work. Isnt the BOV going to be in the same spot as my stock.

It isn't the BOV hose that causes you the heartache. It is the difference in the actual LICP itself. If you look at the pictures in the link that Grilla posted above, you will see the two set-ups side by side, and realize why the stock hose won't work.

got ya, totally over looked the connection, my fault. Those prices seem a little low, bc a week or two ago he was looking on ebay and found some crazy prices and then i went on our forum here and found between 100 - 130 for FMIC, and about 100 for piping and 100 for bov (give or take). I was thinking maybe 200 - 250 for FMIC, piping and BOV... sound fair enough? No shipping involved and we are friends so im sure he doesnt wanna over charge and i dont wanna low ball him.

If you add up the prices I listed, that's pretty much the same ballpark. Of course, the pricing depends on the quality of the items. A trick a lot of these FMIC sellers are doing is showing you the back side of the IC to hide all the bent fins. Another thing to consider...those listings you found are the items that don't sell, mostly due to price.
Markspd6 is selling a kit that is very nice quality for $360: http://www.clubralliart.com/showthread.php?t=4526. Maybe start from there.

$200-$250 for the kit is reasonable since no shipping fees are involved.
